Derk Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Hm... just home- sort of tipsy, my wife definitely beyond that- from the local party in the village park and in the pub afterwards.. The whole country kind of blew up celebrating the crowning of the (already) very popular new King & Queen with literally millions and millions of people out in the streets. Great celebrations in very nice weather all over the country with the King & the Queen and the Princesses taking some wonderfull spontaneous actions in Amsterdam. Proud of my country...... . Please don't phone us tomorrow , we'll be back later. I'll be editing this with some Youtube stuff later on.... Edited May 1, 2013 by Derk Quote
Capitaine Vengeur Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 May this reign be worth of respect before the Dutch people today, and History tomorrow. I suppose that new Dutch Euro coins shall be stamped at once? 1 Quote
